JOB S. MARMADUKE.

And John S. Marmaduke is dead.
A true heart has ceased to beat, a
faithful public servant has passed from
this world to the other. We knew
that for many months his health had
been feeble and precarious, but relying
on his magnificent physique and splen-
did constitution the idea of an early
death never suggested itself. The writer
knew Gen. Marmaduke well, tori several
wears was closely associated with him
in what was to him "a labor of love tor
those who had been his comrades in
arms i'll the trying days of the civil
war, and he learned to appreciate the
tenderness and the largeness of his
heart. He did not carry it pinned to
his sleeve for the public gaze, but to
his intimates i; was revealed as full of
kindness, charity and love.
AS man he was honest, honorable
and true, as an enemy perhaps strong
in his preiudices, but as a friend loyal
and devoted, as d public servant conr-
ageous, and faithful to every trust.
As a soldier he was bravery and CHI
valry personified, aud though he came
to the duties of the ~governorship with
little previous study of politics his stur-
dy common sense, combined with in
flexible integrity and undaunted cOur-
age carried him through every crisis,
of finance, strikes and Legislative diff
culties with honor to himself and credit
to the state.
! Gov. Marmaduke was born in Saline
county, Mo-, March "A, 1888, his father
being Meredith NJ. Marmaduke, who
was acting governor of Missouri Tor
the term of Gov. Reynolds, who died
early in his tenure of office. John S.
Marmaduke worked on his fathers
farm, was educated at the common
school near his home, for two years at
the Masonic college in this city, during
which time he boarded with Judge
III. 20. NoOu, WIN say ina hC was q
most exemplary young man, at Yale,
Harvard, and finally at West Point,
where lie graduated i'll the class of 1857
having received his appointment to
West Point from John 5. Phelps. He
was lieutenant in the 7th infantry,
and served OH frontier duty at Fort
Laramie, in the Utah expedition and in
New Mexico. He resigned his COM
mission to enter the service of the state
of Missouri April II, 1861. In the con-
federate army he served with distinc-
ton, rising rapidly to be a major gen
eral of cavalry.
His civil career, as railroad COM
missioner and governor, is familiar to
our readers.
And so passes from the stage of action
the most CONSPICUOUS figure in Missouri
politics, a true friend, all honest man,
and an incorruptible executive.

DANIEL MANNING.

Not unexpectedly Daniel Manning
died at his home in Albany, N. Y,
last Saturday.
MIR. Manning was a remarkable ex-
ample OF the possibilities which exist
under our benign form of government
for a poor boy who has courage, hon.
esty and ability.
Born of poor parents his early life
was a struggle for bare existence. He
climbed the ladder of financial Success
in the newspaper business at Albany.
He was a warm friend of Mr.. Til
denis, and had more to do with the
nomination of Ar. Cleveland for pre-.
sident than had any other man in the
country.
As reporter, editor, banker, political
leader, secretary of the United States
treasury, husband, father, friend, Dan
lei Manning executed every trust with
ability and fidelity. Though always
a strong partisan, a politician of pro-
nounced views, so open and true was
his private aud public life that no poll.

against his fair name or good faith.
Mr.. Manning was a large man, OF
powerful frame: WAS alNays scrupu-
Iously neat and we'll dressed, he was
dignified and courteous I'm demeanor.
He was twice married. His first wife,
Miss May Little, he married in 1853
She died in 1882, and Oh November 49,,
1884, he married Miss May Margarita
Fryer, of Albany, N. Y. He leaves
four children-James Hilton Manning.
who recently became managing editor
of the Argus; Frederick Clinton Man
ming, a stationer in Albany: Mrs. Del
ehanty, of Albany, aud Miss Mary, a
young lady barely out of her teens.
The illness OF Mr.. Manning dated
from March %, 1886, when he was at.
tackled by dizziness and sustained a
heavy fail as he was about to enter his
Office in the treasury building on re-
turning from a meeting of the cabinet.
He was taken in a carriage to bis home
where he remained for a considerable
time under the care of physicians.
There were various reports as 10 the
nature of the attack and subsequent
illness. but it is now generally agreed
that the trouble was apoplexy. After
resigning the Treasury portfolio he
went TO England in the hope of OBJ
tanning benefit, and spent more than q
month at Bournemouth, a noted sea-
side resort Oh the west coast of En-
gland. For a time he felt stronger
and looked improved, but 1t did not
last long. Returning to this country,
Mr.. Manning passed the hot summer
months ia the braciug air of Long
Branch. His health. however, did not
improve.
Mr.. Manning was born at Albany,
August 16, 1881. His father, JGh,,

John Wanamaker, the great Philadelphia
merchant, recently spoke as follows about

81 never in my life used such thing as a
poster, or dodger, or hand bill. My plan
for fifteen years has been to buy so much
space in newspaper and fill it up with
what | wanted. l would not give an adj
vertisement in newspaper of 400 circula-
tiou for 5000 dodgers or posters If |
wanted to sell cheap jewelry, or run lot
terry scheme, / might use posters, but l
would not insult a decent reading public
with hand bills. The class of people who
read such things are poor material
to look to for support in mercantile
affairs | deal directly with the pub
Usher say to him How long will you
let me run a column of matter through your
paper for $780, or $780, as the case may be-
let him do the figuring, and if think he
is not trying TO take more than his share
give him the copy. / lay aside the profits
on particular line of goods for advertising
purposes The first year | laid $1,000; last
year laid aside and spent $4,000 | have
done better this year, and shall increase
that sum as the profits warrant it. | owe
my success to the newspapers, and to them
/ shall freely give a certain profit of my
yearly business
